Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x + y + z = 35 \\ x = y - 3 \\ z = 4y + 2 \\ \\ (y - 3) + y + (4y + 2) = 35 \\ 6y - 1 = 35 \\ 6y = 36 \\ y = \frac{36}{6} \\ y = 6 \\ \\ x = y - 3 \\ x = 6 - 3 \\ x = 3 \\ \\ z= 4y + 2 \\ z= (4 \times 6) + 2 \\ z = 26[/tex]

the first number is 3

the second number is 6
